I have rarely, or never. met a person as diversified in all phases of talent afforded human beings as Paul. It seems he was able in anything he put his hand to, and he shared them with me in my formative years.

Papa, we love and miss you. Thank you for playing with us, helping us grandkids on the big slides, recording our silliness on your camcorder and all the little ways you showed you love us, too.

This announcement floods my memory of all the great times Paul and I had working on antennas in the Cow Pasture. Many weekends we walked around Monte Sano and then one day discovering Huntsville Mountain when there was only a moonshine still and rattle snakes; long before there were any houses. We worked long hours together to get the jobs done and Paul was always so helpful and insightful as to what needed to be done. The place we worked some of the time was on Madkin Mountain and it was almost impossible to get to the job site. So, Paul being the one that got things done negotiated an Army tank that we drove to work up the mountain a few days. What fun we had working together!

I am very proud to be related to Paul. I know that both he and my grandfather (his brother Harold) were great men in so many ways. It makes me want to be a better person.

I had a unique relationship to Paul. He was the youngest of Paul and Aline Swindall, and I was their first grandchild. We were only 9 years apart in age, and he was more like a big brother than an uncle. We lived with my grandparents during WWII while my father was serving in the European Theater, and I spent a lot of time with Paul. He gave me so much of his time. He bought my first bicycle and taught me to ride it ... memories flood as I write. If you read the obituary, you know something of his abilities and talent. And it did not just start when he went to work for NASA. All his life, if you gave him a block of wood, a length of pipe, or even a few inches of solder, he could make something out of it. I saw this more than once. He learned to drive a car when he was 6 years old. I could go on, but suffice it to say that a true original has gone on to glory.

I am thankful that I was fortunate enough to have Paul as my Uncle. I never had a question as to whether or not he loved me.
